    “In Oct. 2021, the SEC approved a Bitcoin futures ETF. We thought they would approve conversion of our spot Bitcoin fund, but they didn’t. We sued and won. Unanimous decision. Tomorrow is the SEC’s deadline to file an appeal to that decision.”– Dave LaValle, @Grayscale #STADC2023

    "We’ve been working for 9 years to create a Bitcoin ETF. The SEC chose to approve a futures-based ETF, but not a spot-based ETF. We believe alike products must be treated alike. The SEC denied our application and we're suing them over that." - @dave_lavalle, @Grayscale #STADC2022

    “I was excited to see the Biden Administration’s exec order on crypto. It seemed to strike the right balance between promoting innovation and protecting investors. This level of coordination & cohesion between regulators and agencies is very encouraging.” @Grayscale’s @CraigSalm

    “There's a big problem with sub-dollar stocks. They comprise 15-20% of trading volume. There are now 700 companies that don’t meet the listing requirements of the exchange they’re listed on. These used to get delisted. What happened here?” – Steve Kay, @VirtuFinancial #STADC2023
